Apple Intelligence and two other features won't be available in the European Union when they launch later in 2024, due to interoperability rules in the DMA.

Apple is stepping on its own tail. The correct way to implement such features is to provide API to integrate any AI with their device, not only ChatGPT. And as an example, they should provide their own completely optional app for this, which could be downloaded from the App Store. This app should not be part of iOS at all. So EU regulators cannot do anything with it or it will be harder for them to figure out ways to restrict it. And users will worry less about privacy.

It probably doesn’t need to be an optional app if they’re giving you the ability to use any model you want at the OS level integration.

When you’re using the device for the first time show a screen and let them choose AI / provide their own local model.

I wonder how listing things alphabetical would go given apple would keep them near the top.

Who cares.

If Apple don’t want to compete fair in the market, then others will.

And no iPhone user will miss an AI feature. Most of them don’t even understand how to use 80% of the phones features anyway.

Dumb phones on the rise.

then others will

Unfortunately, I don’t think the others want to compete fair either. It’s a big race to shove garbage to consumers.

Well, if it’s illegal to do otherwise, some must do it, because the money involved are big.

I mean, can we get this in the US also?? Nobody wants this shit.
